Te Aroha Goodwin

Colour: Resene Monza

"My inspiration was drawn from Monza history, the empress Teodolinda and the Domeo Cathedral. I wanted to combine a structured dress with a new age Empress.

The gold bodice gives a moulded structured armour-like look, the lapels at the back represent gold trims from ancient gowns and a low back for femininity and posture. Large pleats at the front show the colour blend. I wanted a fitted dress to show off curves.

My dress represents pride + power + beauty."
